🧠 AI Models

Real-World Dataset Integration

EdgeGuardAI now supports training with real-world datasets for improved accuracy and realistic anomaly detection:

LogHub HDFS Dataset

• Source: LogHub repository (Hadoop Distributed File System logs)
• Size: ~11MB compressed, ~16MB of log data
• Duration: Several hours of HDFS operations
• Anomaly Ratio: ~2.9% (realistic distribution)
• Features: 14 time-series features extracted from log patterns

Training with Real Data

# Train models with real-world data (default)
python ai_models/train_models.py --train all --use-real-data

# Force synthetic data training
python ai_models/train_models.py --train all --use-synthetic-data

# Process dataset manually
python ai_models/real_data_processor.py --dataset hdfs

1. Anomaly Detection

• Models: Autoencoder Neural Network, Isolation Forest
• Real Data Features: Log volume, error rates, message entropy, component diversity
• Synthetic Fallback: CPU, Memory, Latency, HTTP Status Codes
• Output: Anomaly score (0-1)
• Threshold: 0.8 for alerting

2. Failure Prediction

• Models: LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory), Random Forest
• Real Data Features: 10-timestep sequences of log metrics
• Synthetic Fallback: Time-series metrics over 5-minute windows
• Output: Failure probability in next 10 minutes
• Threshold: 0.6 for proactive recovery
